Release Notes:

In the early eighties punk came to the industrial city of Landskrona in southern
Sweden. The outcast youngsters were squatting community buildings and fighting
neonazis with stillettoknifes and fuzzguitars. Two adolescent boys, Jonass and
Marcass, were ruptured by the commotion and quickly became a part of the
punkscene. In the still of the night they stole a guitar and a bassyntheziser
from the local musicstore and started making fast, aggressive music. Their first
gig was as an opening act to the infamous punkrocker Neon Leon, who at that time
played some form of pornographic blues with Little Richardesque outbursts.

Some fifteen years later Jonass and Marcass met up in Malmo with skamaniac
Andreass and Quit Your Dayjob was born. The band soon became known as a fierce
liveact and seven hundred people showed up when they threw a party to celebrate
their first single ôHead of the Daycare Centerö. The band gained a strong
following and named their fans ôFreaksö.

Sweden first saw Quit Your Dayjob at the Emmaboda festival 2002 and then the
race was on. Releasing the single ôPissing on a Pandaö and by touring cities
around Sweden they got their first underground hitsingle and new freaks were
born.

Playing the toilets for a year, the Arvika festival then gave the band a spot in
the limelight. Iranian refugee Abbass saw the concert, promised to sell his hat
and release the minialbum ôQuit your Dayjobö on his label I Made This. The
eight-track cd found its way through Sweden in the summer of 2004 and eventually
landed in the Bad Taste car stereo. After a night of polish vodka the heavily
hung over record company crew cranked up the stereo and quickly rejoiced,
shouting: THE FREAKS ARE OUT! And instantly decided to re-release the minialbum.

The Quit Your Dayjob minialbum is a nuclear bomb exploding with wild electro
punk surf and raw energy. Jonass, Marcass and Andreass invite YOU to join the
army of freaks in the fight against everyday boredom. All in the name of... QUIT
YOUR DAYJOB.
